Product Description:

Not to be mistaken for a superhero wielding a VHS cassette, Captain Video was, in fact, a popular do-gooder who frequently saved the universe in his own TV show during the 1950s. This collection gathers together some of the episodes from the show, with Judd Holdren starring as the fearless Captain. His secret mountain base on earth allows him to monitor any evildoers who threaten to upset the harmonious balance of the Universe, leading to some exciting and endearingly retro adventures.
